Maya 2011 High quality rendering not showing diffuse

Surfa

Ok I haven't used maya in like a billion years but the new ui caught my eye so I downloaded the trail. So to test it out I imported a model I am working on at the moment and tried to set up a view-port rendering. So is set up a basic phong material in hyper-shade with a diffuse/normal and the diffuse in the specual input. The only problem is that when I got to high quality render it only shows the normal map and a basic white material. But if I go to viewport 2.0 I see the whole set-up fine.

Now this would be fine except you can't do any editing work inside of the viewport 2.0 mode. So do you guys have any idea.

Both have the same material applied.

Also note the textures and model is still very much a wip.

I haven't used the a view port renderer in maya but... Wouldn't making high end renders null the point of using a view port render? Wouldn't you have to make a new material and put it on normally to do renders?

well it works fine for me, so i think this is what is wrong. In the end of the shader attributes under hardware, you can choose what textures are visible in the high quality viewport. Sometimes it maybe only be set to show normal or diffuse whatever, but you should check that and make sure its set to "combined" or something like that don't have it right here in front of me so excuse me if i use the wrong term.

delete the object's vertex colors, and you're set. In the polygon menu set, go to color/delete current color set

Autodesk should've really named in Viewport 0.2.

Anyway, don't mind me. Carry on.
